Hi Jane, You asked, I think, about whether it's possible to burn files on which you've run the "Make Bookmarkable" AppleScript so they appear in the Audiobooks section of iTunes.

Yes, you can burn these files to CD without problems since your original AAC files are not copy protected. Here's a section from the "Make Bookmarkable.rtf" file that comes with the downloaded AppleScript: <begin excerpt> • The "kind" of a bookmarkable track in iTunes is listed as "Protected AAC audio file". If you use "Make Bookmarkable" to alter your non-protected AAC files they will be thus designated. Their file icons will also display the tiny lock glyph. But in reality they are not copy protected. (If it were that easy to make an audio file copy protected it would be just as easy to remove the copy protection and Apple would never allow this.) <end excerpt> Showing up as "Protected" is a side effect of script since the files that naturally fall into the Audiobooks section of iTunes are either Audible files or audiobooks purchased from the iTunes Store, and both of these are "protected" files. Just burn these using the "data disk" format option under iTunes. HTH. Cheers, Esther
